Happy New Year: Nepal Sambat, Rastria Sambat !

Today, basically people in Kathmandu Valley marked new Nepali Era Nepal Sambat 1129.  This Era is based on lunar calender and started 1129 years befor when a person known as Shankhadhar Saakhwa paid back loan of Kathmandu’s poor.

This day was celebrated different ways since 4 decades. I myself has been participating since 25 years. At those days, we were maximising the celebration as a Day for Protest against the then autocratic rulars. And demand was Nepal Era should be recognised as National Era instead of Bikram Era.

A lovely dinner with Prof. Mathur

July 12- Last night I was too exhuausted, there was two reasons-i) unity talks with CoNEP was disturbing. Comrades had “strange” positon. They were saying- they have problem with gefont becuse its image is more Communistic. They have leaders in some affiliates who are folowers of Nepali Congress. At the same time they have pronblem with GEFONT because its international affiliation is more broad-based, not as communist. CoNEP’s claim is they are with WFTU which is communist organisation.

Intersting! they are not happy with our national policy because we are with poupular left movement, they are unhappy with us beacause our international affilation is more broad-based. What a princile our comrades are following?!

I was too wet due to heavy rain during my return. However, it is too exciting event for me after that one professor Ajit Mathur organised a lovely dinner honouring me and Bind being a CA member. Great! such celebration even we didn’t organise in our home.
